Oyster Stuffing

Makes: 15  servings
Serving size: 1/2  cup
Yield: 7-1/2 cups Prep 20 mins Cook 325°F 30 mins

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup  butter
  • 1 cup  chopped onions
  • 1 cup  chopped celery
  • 12 ounces  day-old bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (about 8 cups)
  • 1 teaspoon  salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon  freshly ground pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon  ground sage
  • 1 pint  shucked oysters, in liquid
  • 1/4 cup  milk
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten

Directions

1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and celery; cook 3 to 5 minutes, until soft. Transfer to a large bowl; stir in bread, salt, pepper and sage.

2. Drain oysters through a large strainer over a 1 quart glass measure; transfer oysters to a bowl. Strain oyster liquid through a fine sieve into a separate bowl; set aside. Rinse oysters under cold running water to remove any sand or shells, then coarsely chop. Add oysters to bowl with bread mixture.
